Coogee

Coogee has been a seaside resort of Sydney since the tram arrived in 1902. In 1928 an 'English seaside style' amusement pier was opened, reaching 180 meters out into the sea complete with a 1400 seat theatre, a 600 capacity ballroom, a 400 seat restaurant upstairs, small shops and a penny (machine) arcade. Unfortunately Coogee's rough surf damaged the pier and it was demolished in 1934.

Little Bay

The Little Bay area was first used as a makeshift camp during Sydney's smallpox outbreak in 1881-82 - then a permanent hospital to treat infectious diseases. An ideal location because it was isolated from settlements but still close to Sydney.

Maroubra

Major residential development began in the 1910s after Herbert Dudley, a real estate developer, subdivided the land into residential blocks. Dudley also lobbied for the extension of the tramline to Maroubra Junction in 1912, where he had built Dudley's Emporium which has just recently been redeveloped. More crown land was released for residential use in the 1920s and the tram line was extended to Maroubra Beach in 1921.
